Formation of dense Ti-B-Fe system product obtained by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis

The possibility of obtaining a dense material of the Ti-B-Fe system in one stage during self-propagating high-temperature synthesis is studied. The influence of some process parameters on the densification of reaction products of the Ti-B-Fe system, which has high physical and mechanical characteristics, is studied. The maximum temperature developed in the combustion wave, using ferroboron alloys as initial reagents, annealing of initial powders, and preheating of the charge before self-propagating high-temperature synthesis are established to have the greatest influence on the formation of a nonporous product during the combustion of the Ti-B-Fe system.
